Moby Grape "Dark Magic" Live 1965-1969 Various Venues

Someone has recently asked if I had any Moby Grape.   I took a walk down to the basement to see what I could find. I knew I had a few, and to my surprise I had a few more. I thought I would start out with this one. For a couple many reasons. The sound quality over all is pretty good, which is very hard to find for this group. It spans a good distance from the early years to their high mark. And most of all the music, there are some real gems on this double disc. There are live tracks from Winterland, The Avalon, The Fillmore, and Monterey.  Moby Grape seems to be one of those greats, that is unfortunately overlooked. So, I hope this will be a nice start, with more to come.

Thanks for following up on the request! There's lots of good stuff on this set. A few cuts made it to the "official" live cd, but most of them remain unreleased. Can't wait to see what else you come up with.
